I have the tool for pressing the bearings off and on, But shipping might kill the deal.

Seal is easy. If the wheel bearing is fucked, then you need a special tool to remove and replace. There's also either one or two spacers that get pressed onto the axle shaft. They must be reinstalled exactly where they were, or it will leak again.

Most difficult part is remembering how the fuck the drum brakes go back together.

I need to watch that video.

I suspect the bearing is fine. 225k.

I just changed the diff fluid and will park it with the DS uphill for now

The T-Case and adapter on my cruiser has been trying to remove itself for a few weeks now. The allen head bolts attaching the adapter were starting to back out. I have been putting it off until I had time to trailer it from my parents house to my apartment in the Bay Area.

Just trying my best to lower property values in my area.

Been working on playing Musical motors between 3 Toyotas lately. My 1971 Hilux is getting the 2RZ swapped into it from my ‘96 Tacoma 2wd I got for free. And the motor from my Hilux is going into this 1965 Toyota Tiara. Just got the 8RC into the Tiara tonight. I was able combine the motor mounts from the hilux and Tiara together to make this motor mount right up. I’m beyond stoked.

The Tiara…

The hilux…

And the free Tacoma…

I've been building out this '91 for the past couple of weeks. The front is finished up and today I'm doing rear brake lines and shock mounts.

+1 on the tiara being sick!

trucks are cool but obscure old cars with mud terrains are better

A couple days ago, but when the car sits in the rain water likes to drip right onto a firewall grommet and it makes the driver’s side floorboard soaking wet. So got the idea off T4R to just make a drip shroud. Found some scrap 14g stainless and whipped this up real quick.

No more wet floor!

Also on lunch today, rebolted the exhaust to the bracket on the transmission so it would quit rattling when the clutch starts to grab

Have a mystery clunk I’m still trying to locate, as well as find out why the wiring for the elocker keeps blowing fuses
